I have worked for many years as a herbalist and rejuvenation therapist, and during a period of clinical practice in China, I spent a lot of time pestering my tutor (a well respected professor) to give me his ideas on a longevity formula. Eventually, on my last day in his clinic, he passed on to me a formula passed down to him from his teacher. I was expecting this formula to contain loads of ginseng, cordyceps, ginkgo, deer horn etc., but was surprised to find that it was centred around the blood tonic herb he shou wu. Obviously it did not contain maca and other non Chinese herbs. I have doctored his original formula myself to include herbs from other cultures - the formula now contains around eighteen different herbs. For information on many of these herbs see my book 100 Herbs of Power - Strategic Press - New York.
